2008 Paris Auto Show: Peugeot RC Concept

Peugeot RC concept

The French auto maker plans to send a concept car to the 2008 Paris Auto Show. According to the company’s statements this auto is going to be “the missing link” between RC concept cars presented in 2002 at the Geneva Auto Show and 908 RC.

The autos made six years ago had a catlike look and steep windshields. They were offered with a choice of engines: gasoline or diesel.

Peugeot 908 RC was shown to the world in 2006 in Paris. It was criticized for being alike to “Ferrari-esque flight of fantasy”.

The new Peugeot is a four-seat concept with the aggressive look. The details are sketchy and there are not many facts revealed about it. The company says the new RC has “highly innovative hybrid structure” and since the designers consider it to be a “working laboratory” it is still not known if the manufacturer is going to assemble this car for sale.

According to the projections the new concept will have 313 horsepower and low or zero emission (depending on the mode it uses: electric or combined).
